Why does best motoring hate the Z

kenchan · 01-19-2012, 07:23 AM

I thought they went out of business. Reason is clear. They entertain spec ricors.

this is very true..

maybe we are ready to see a vid where we aren't the "target car" or something of that nature. ready to be the hunter not the hunted in other words

They should do a video of the Z chasing down a Miata, BRZ, and FRS.

458 catches fire, ZR1 spins off the road (driven by Clarkson), arial atom driver crashes because his passenger's Big Mac got stuck in his eyes, 5.0 wins.

See the videos vs the cayman (or the pre-2011 mustang). The z has just been around a while, it makes a pretty decent reference point.

NISMO's are only handling and aerodynamically modified. The tune on the NISMO is negligably better than the reg Z. Too many NISMO owners put there cars against well modified cars thinking their factory tune will do something. An intake and exhaust isn't going to get Z drivers monstrous gains. The real truth is... Z owners need to truly and honestly consider FI. An NA tune vs an FI tune is night and day. The Z is not an out the box sports car people percieve it to be. Its an OTB handler with enough power to make it more fun than the lesser powered competition. Ie miata, S2k and other 4bangers.

Forced Induction.

It would be amusing to see BM do a spec-370Z race - all the people who take these videos too seriously would have their heads explode as they achieve the most perfect orgasm because the 370Z would be winning and losing simultaneously.

I really didn't take the vids too seriously but did think the car was totally mismatched . The races would have been better had the Z's been tuned like most of the other cars but oh well . I would love to see some newer vids with say a gtm Z or stillen racing newer cars
